Re: [HTCondor-users] glidein binaries

["Pietrowicz, Stephen R" <srp@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, I'll take a look.

I was able to grab the entire 7.8.7 binary download, un-tar it on the remote machine, export _condor_SBIN to the right place and get it to work when I submitted the next job.  For some reason I expected to have more problems than that.

Thanks to you (and John from a previous post) for the suggestions,

Steve

Hi Stephen,

There is Bosco (http://bosco.opensciencegrid.org/) that does what it sounds like you want.  It creates a Condor glidein overlay on a PBS (or LSF, SGE) cluster.

And it can do it on demand.  No need to submit a PBS job, just submit your dag, and Bosco will handle submitting the glideins.
